Professor of Mathematics

This is the web page for my Spring 2017 class
on the Calculus of Variations (MATH-GA 2660.003).
Material will be posted as the semester proceeds. 

I previously taught a similar class in Spring 2013; 
the associated notes are here.

This spring's version will start as in 2013, and 
will be at about the same level, but there will
be some differences in the choice of topics.
